Answer:

the lithosphere is the solid, rocky crust covering the planet and the hydrosphere is composed of all the water on the planet

Explanation:

The lithosphere and the hydrosphere have numerous similarities, but also numerous differences. The biggest and most obvious difference between these two spheres of planet Earth is that the lithosphere is solid, rocky crust that covers the planet, while the hydrosphere is and is represented by all of the water on the planet. The crust is mostly made up by the volcanic activity, thus through the lava flows and crystallization of the magma, which have created the rocks, or with other words the crust, the land masses. The hydrosphere is represented by the waters, and it has been created by both water coming from the volcanoes, and from the space objects that have been falling on our planet. The waters are generally divided into two categories, saline and freshwater, with the saline being in much higher amount.

Explain what a convection current is and how it causes winds in the atmosphere.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

-Convection currents transfer heat from one place to another by mass motion of a fluid such as water, air or molten rock. The heat transfer function of convection currents drives the earth’s ocean currents, atmospheric weather and geology. Convection is different from conduction, which is a transfer of heat between substances in direct contact with each other.

-The heating of the Earth's surface and atmosphere by the sun drives convection within the atmosphere and ocean. This convection produces winds and ocean currents. The greater the pressure differences between a low-pressure area and a high-pressure area, the stronger the winds.

kherson [118]

The correct answer is - B) providing resources to modernize Tibet's economy and society in general.

China has been trying to integrate Tibet into the Chinese society, in one way or another, since it incorporated it in its territory. Since Tibet is on the fa western part of the country and pretty isolated of the developed part, the Chinese government made a plan to bring in the modern society in Tibet instead.

The Chinese government invested heavily in Tibet, and improved the infrastructure and the living conditions, make it in the shape of the the developed ares in the east. Also, lot of Han Chinese were sponsored by the government to move to Tibet, so the Tibetans became a minority in Tibet very quickly. It is a process that is still going on, and it seems that manages to properly perform a cultural assimilation of the Tibetans.
